The thing that I am most proud about is the fact that this team has overcome such adversity and negativity. There we were, 10-6 and hearing all the negative talk and dealing with things we had dealt with all year, but these kids stayed together and now look at us, sectional champions. |
The thing we loved about her is she can score anywhere on the floor. She has got great 3-point range. She is very aggressive with going right and left to the basket. She is versatile. She is high percentage from everywhere on the floor. Those are the things that kind of separated her. |
The transplant center told us how important it was, just raising awareness that people need kidneys. There were 173 people on the waiting list, and now there's one less, ... That's 173 people who are waiting for a cadaveric donor because they don't have a family member who is a match. |

The U.S. can and should remain strongly engaged internationally, because regional instability will not solve itself. But we must choose our tools very carefully, for the stakes do not allow failure. Power is a finite quantity; if we expend it all over the world, we diminish ourselves. |
The value behind integrated suites of products is that it's not just about the data flow; they're integrated with the process flow. You're getting better data and you're pooling more data across that network, so you're getting better optimization. But the real big value is cycle time. |
The warehouse with all those crates, thousands of them, stretching out as far as the eye can see. 227 metric tons of fish from around the world-fish with muscular tails wide as a weight lifter's chest, fish with big, open mouths and shining eyes, fish from deep places and deep dreams. |
The way it was said makes it sound like I'm not singing live at my shows, which is not true. In the past, we've used instrumentation and voice samples on the up-tempo numbers. This just gives the dance tracks a bit more punch to enhance the live performance, but I think that's normal. |

The whole employee benefits field, and health insurance specifically, is an area in which you will not get any rejection. Everybody is shopping prices in health insurance, and everybody wants to see if they can reduce their rates. Most people will talk to you about it sooner or later. |
The whole younger man-older woman relationship does have an expiration period. When [men are] in their 20s, they're pretty focused on their careers and society tells them they can get married later. They find these women who are their intellectual peers but not looking for commitment. |
The worst thing that any team can do is think about their record. The minute you start thinking more than one game ahead, you will start losing. We never even thought about 70 wins in Chicago until we got to around 65. Then it became a goal, but we were still focused on the next game. |
The write-downs are more of a reflection of what's happened in the past rather than an indicator of the future. The value of television and radio stations have clearly declined in the last three to four years as those media compete with other forms of advertising, namely the Internet. |
Their earnings are coming out today. They're in the midst of merger activity, they have grown their franchise from $6 billion to $75 billion with acquisitions here in St. Louis. The ... numbers will tell us more in the next say 12 months as they fully integrate (different) franchises. |
Their story would've been tough for anybody to endure, but to endure that at the age of 7, 8 and 9 years old, it's horrifying. To go through that and overcome it is amazing. God forbid if something like that happened to me. I pray I'd have enough heart and courage to do what they did. |
